So, Putin calls the deal a win for everyone - interesting thing to say since if the deal is actually any good from a West/Israel point of view Iran could only see it as a win if it is indeed their goal to reach a detente with America by abandoning its nuke program - which pretty sharply conflicts with Rouhani hailing the deal as the international community acknowledging Iran's right to enrich and develop nuclear technology - so, clear as mud all that. Obama and Kerry call it an historic deal that rolls back Iran's nuke ambitions - which again goes against what Iran is saying about the deal - and Netanyahu chimes in by calling it an historic deal alright, historically bad. So he's not impressed.
Obviously it's gonna take a few days of people going through it and nailing down to the nitty gritty before one can say something definitive about it - from what I've read on surface does seem a bit tougher than what I was expecting but still not tough enough to convince me this is anything other than a charade designed to hem in Israel and take the military option off the table - if Iran was serious about abandoning its nuclear ambitions America would have been able to ask for concessions that clearly establish that seriousness - I don't see that here - what I'm seeing at the moment is the only power in the world capable of stopping roguish nations from developing nuclear weapons declaring to all interested parties they're no longer in that business, so have at it - but, let's be fair and wait for the details to get fully hashed out.
